In order to access a wi-fi network, it is necessary to be in the area of coverage of an access point, called a hotspot, or also in public places that have wi-fi. To use, you must have a mobile device, such as a laptop, tablet or cell phone, to access the Internet with ease.

Some people confuse Wi-Fi with free Internet, which is a mistake, since wi-fi means only that place has Internet without cables, but in public places like restaurants, airports, shopping malls etc, it is necessary to pay a fee or to get a product to enjoy the benefit.
Currently, virtually all notebooks and cell phones come with Wi-Fi devices from the factory.
